Gregorski Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Would that not mean that folk could go and get these made themselves on the sly? Spot on mate. And there's also a chance that they wouldn't stop at one copy and end up flooding eBay with knock off versions. Unfortunately it's pretty common. I know that 99% of folks wouldn't go in for such shady stuff but it only takes one to mess it up for the rest. It would be a right boot in the goolies for anyone that's contributed to the print so far. What I will do is try and post some details of the ilustration and not the whole version. I'll see if I have time today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim-jambo Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Gregor I can get to diggers after the game if you are still going to be there for pickups Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregorski Posted August 8, 2013 Author Share Posted August 8, 2013 Cheers Jim. I'm not sure that we're going to do the pick up idea from the Diggers anymore. I think the general idea is that it Is a disaster waiting to happen. I'd have to find somewhere willing to hold them for me during the game also. I doubt I'd get past the stewards with a pile of postal tubes. I don't know. I'll have a think. I'd still be willing to do it if enough people are up for collecting them that way. Just got back to UK today, jet lag and all. Picking up prints tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuarty1874 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Uplifted no. 250/250 tonight, and well worth the wait. Looks superb, can't believe you have organised this from over the pond, massive credit due. Still think there's a job on the official programme for you once we get our house in order. Also looks superb under a very dim light, where all you can make out is H E A R T S. Tremendous, the other 249 people are in for a treat. Thanks again mate.

Gibbster Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Seeing McRae of Gorgie (framers) on the list for ?560 owed to them by HMFC I'd suggest using them for this if you are Edinburgh based. Just a reminder this business will likely be ?500 out of pocket as a consequence of our admin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could most likely get a standard size A2 frame from most places or you could get it custom framed with a Matt frame. McCrae of Gorgie is the place to go I hear.

Gregorski Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 Update time: Went out to the post office today, bought all the stamps that I could and was able to mail out all the prints apart from thirty. That's not including the US and Canada ones that I'm bringing home with me to mail from New Jersey. I've to go back tomorrow to mail the rest as they didn't have enough stamps. I bought all 480 quids worth. I then went round to the Livingston sorting office to mail them all which resulting in the staff there having a bloody fit when they saw the amount I was posting through the mailbox. Apparently there is a special designated area for "bulk loads". Oh well. Nobody told me. I'll be mailing the rest tomorrow before lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo Spartan Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Picked up mine tonight and absolute class. Gregor you have a great talent and I am sure everyone would agree on here what a great job you have done and all of your time spent doing all of this for the club we all love. Frame shopping tomorrow so the masterpiece can be hung!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
